Visit Caracas, the capital of Venezuela. Explore the historic center with the National Pantheon (resting place of Simón Bolívar), ride the cable car to Mount Ávila for panoramic city views, and see contemporary art at the Museum of Contemporary Art of Caracas (one of Latin America's leading modern art museums).
Visit Maracaibo, Venezuela's second-largest city on the shores of Lake Maracaibo. See the iconic General Rafael Urdaneta Bridge (one of the longest prestressed concrete bridges in the world), explore the historic Santa Lucia Church (a 17th-century colonial landmark), and experience the Catatumbo lightning phenomenon (a near-continuous electrical storm visible over the lake).
